Star Wars (1977)
Original British poster
Artist: Tom William Chantrell (1916-2001)

Unframed: 30 x 40 in. (76 x 102 cm)

Linen backed

George Lucas commissioned Tom William Chantrell to design this British poster. Lucas liked the final result so much that he used it for the US style C poster. However, it was designed as a landscape format poster and therefore lends itself well to this British size.

This was where it all begun back in 1977, when George Lucas brought us the beginning of the Star Wars empire.

Excellent condition, colours remaining very bright, very minor restoration to folds.

Material of piece: Paper, backed on linen
